Spain’s remarkable international run continued Saturday as the world champions defeated England 3–2 at Wembley in a thrilling UEFA Nations League encounter.
The victory extended Spain’s unbeaten streak to 39 international matches, continuing a run that began after their defeat to Colombia in March 2024. Spain had already shown a new world record during their 2026 FIFA World Cup triumph, surpassing Italy’s earlier mark of 37 unbeaten matches.
England took the lead during an entertaining first half, but Spain showed their resilience by fighting back. Mikel Oyarzabal eventually scored the winning goal, completing another comeback for Luis de la Fuente’s side.
The result means Spain continue their extraordinary run under De la Fuente, who has guided the national team to major success, including the 2024 European Championship and 2026 World Cup. With 39 games without defeat, Spain have now added another chapter to their growing international record.
Their consistency will be closely watched as the Nations League campaign continues.
Spain will next face Croatia on Tuesday, while England will travel to face Czechia.
Can Spain continue their historic unbeaten run?
